COMBINED SMOKING-TUBE'. AND CI GARHOLDER.`

SPECIFICATION'fOrming part of Letters Patent No. 624,768, dated May 9, 1899.

Application filed September 21,1898. Serial No. 691,532. (No model.)

To (lf/ZZ whom it may concern.' l

Be it known that I, JAMES M. EDER, of the city of New York, borough of Manhattan, in

the county of New York and State of New York, have invented a new and Improved Combined Smokinglube and Cigar-Holder,v

of which the following is a full,.clear, and exact description.

This invention relates to improvements in combined smoking-tubes and cigar-holders; and the object is to provide such a device with a simple and convenientineans for charging the device with tobacco or a cigar and 4also for discharging the ashes of the tobacco or the stump of the cigar.

I will describe a -combined smoking-tube and cigar-holder embodying my invention and then point out the novel features in the appended claims.

Reference is to be ha-d to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification,

in Which similar characters of reference indil Referring to the drawings, l designates the body port-ion of the smoking-tube or holder, and 2 the mouthpiece thereof. Affixed to the end of the body portion l is a sleeve 3, and in this sleeve the mouthpiece 2 is designed to rotate and also to have a slight longitudinal lnovement. Arranged within the body portion l is a spiral wire Lt, having a stem por tion 5 connected with the mouthpiece 2. As here shown, the said stem portion is connected with the mouthpiece by means of a pin 6, extended through said mouthpiece and also through an eye formed at the end of the stem. One end of the pin Gis extended slightly outward from the mouthpiece and is adapted to move in a channel 7, formed in the sleeve 3,

and it is also adapted to engage in segmental` recesses 8, formed in said sleeve for the purpose of holding the end of the mouthpiece to be drawn away from the` body portion, as

indicated in Fig. 3. Then by holding the body portion in the tobacco and rotating the mouthpiece relatively to the body portion the feeder 4 will be rotated and draw the tobacco into the tube or holder. After filling the tube or holder the mouthpiece isto be moved against thebody portion and then slightly rotated to move the ends of the pin 6 into therecesses 8, `which will cause the mouthpiece to engage closely against the body portion to prevent the entrance of air. Obviously a reverse movement of the4 feeder Will discharge any ashes that may be contained in the tube or holder. A cigar may be fed into the holder in the same manner as above described and the butt discharged therefrom in the manner above described.

While I have shown and described the mouthpiece as being movable relatively to the body portion, it isv obvious that thev body portion may be movable relatively to the mouthpiece Without departing from the spirit of my invention, and it is also obvious that other means may be employed for fastening the feeder tothe mouthpiece.

Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- 1. A combined smokingtube and cigarholder, comprising a body.portion and a mouthpiece mounted to rotate one relatively to the other, and a spiral-Wire feeder in the body portion and having connection with the mouthpiece,the said spiral being extended to the mouth orinlet end of the body portion and having a diameter to fit closely in the body portion, substantially as specified.

2. A combined. smoking-tubeand cigar holder, comprising a body portion and a mouthpiece mounted to rotate, one relatively to the other, a spiral feeder arranged in the pin is designed to engage, substantially as body portion and extended the entire length specified.

thereof, a transverse pin in the mouthpiece a and With which the feeder connects, and a JAMES M' BADER sleeve connection between the body portion Witnesses:

and mouthpiece, the said sleeve having a JNO. M. RITTER,

channel in which the projected end of said C. R. FERGUSON.
